Madhyamgram

Should You Buy in Madhyamgram? Our Honest View

Madhyamgram is a municipal town in North 24 Parganas, on Jessore Road between the airport and Barasat. It has grown from a small station town on the Sealdah to Bangaon line into one of the busiest suburbs north of Kolkata, with markets, schools, nursing homes and a steady flow of new apartment projects. Its position close to the airport and on the road to Barasat has made it popular with families who want a newer home at a distance from the crowded inner city.

Our honest view is that Madhyamgram is a practical suburb with good rail and road links. Madhyamgram station on the Bangaon line connects directly to Sealdah, and Jessore Road leads south to the airport and Dum Dum. The Yellow Line Metro from Noapara toward the airport is extending north toward Barasat, which should help further. The drawbacks are heavy traffic on Jessore Road, crowded markets near the station, and some waterlogging in low-lying areas during the monsoon.

Who It Suits

• Daily commuters to Sealdah and central Kolkata by suburban train.
• Frequent flyers and airport staff who want a short drive to the airport.
• Families who want a newer apartment with schools and markets already in place.
• People working in Barasat, New Town or the Dum Dum area.
